On 28 February, Spinnova launched a strategic evaluation which is expected to be finalised within the upcoming months. The company intends to communicate updates to the market, including any revisions to financial guidance, at an appropriate time.

This initiation of change negotiations follows a recent decision by Spinnova’s board of directors to appoint Janne Poranen, the company founder and existing board chair, as chief executive officer (CEO).

Poranen is given the role to oversee all operations within the Spinnova Group and lead the management team while maintaining his position as board chair.

Earlier in the month, Spinnova announced its intention to begin negotiations with all employees at Woodspin, a joint venture it equally owned with Suzano.
